College Crew Team Disrobes to Fight Homophobia and Bullying



Muscled men baring it all to support a good cause? What’s not to like? (Photo by Angus Malcolm for the Warwick Rowers Club)

The guys of the Warwick Rowers Club— the crew team of the University of Warwick in central England — are rocking the boat with a naked calendar that features tasteful nude photographs of their fit bodies to help fight homophobia.

Since 2009, the team has been producing a yearly nude calendar to support its club. But after learning that many of their fans were gay men, this year the team created Sport Allies, a program that reaches out to young people challenged by bullying, homophobia and low self-esteem.

If I live to be a hundred maybe I'll tell them, and they won't be at all scandalous.

Until then, the stories don't fully belong to me.

I applaud these guys.
